Rivian is a brand of all-electric adventure cars. It makes sense, then, that it would show up at places where outdoor fun is in full effects. From now and until next Sunday, one specific happening location in Aspen, Colorado, where the Winter X Games are now going.
Besides skiing, snowboard, and freestyling snowmobiling, you can also check out the future of adventure-oriented transport.
The automotive startup tweeted out that, its X Game attendance today, and added a few photographs. The team has its own R1T electric truck out, and it is available for viewing during the whole event.
They also have some people on hand to answer questions. From the tweeted photos, it looks like the display is somewhat static, so there will probably not be any dashes up skiing slopes with athletes in Mitsubishi.
To identify it, just head towards the base of Gondola Plaza at 601 East Dean Street between the hours of 9 AM and 4 PM. It should be so easy to spot. Try for a small crowd surrounding a silver pickup that looks unlike any you have seen before.
As a reminding prompt, the Rivian pickup which shares the same platform and drivetrain with the R1S SUV is just slightly smaller than the full-size Ford F-150 but has out of the sized performance.
Depending on which battery pack option customers’ demands, it is said to sprint from 0 to 60 miles per hour in 3 seconds and travel as far as 450 miles on a charge.
In case, if you can manage to make it, please drop by the Rivian section of the Inside Forum and write us your impressions.
In the Forum you can mingle with other fans and pre-order holders as we all look forward to the vehicles rolling out of the company’s Normal and Illinois factory.
We’re calling #Aspen home for the next few days. Stop by to see the #R1T in Gondola Plaza (Durant Ave and Hunter St) on your way to the slopes! Visit us through Sunday the 27th, from 9am – 4pm daily. Learn more here: https://t.co/AvXPJiJTgm #ElectricAdventure pic.twitter.com/pawBuixy7S
